  1. OWNER - I own a Hatteras Yacht
Hatteras Model
53' MOTOR YACHT (1969 - 1988)
Both throttles work fine from the flybridge
The throttles in the salon move forward from using the flybridge
However if l try the port throttle in the salon it won’t move at all
Have checked cables all seem fine and work from flybridge
Have checked everything on the Glendinning and all seems fine
Any ideas why salon throttle won’t push forward
 
Is this a new problem? Pull the cover and make sure there isn’t something loose or maybe a bolt or screw jamming the lever. Does it feel like a hard stop or more “mushy” which could indicate a cable problem

Of course that s assuming you don’t have a helm cover upstairs that would prevent the lever from Moving :)

One of our better customers had this intermittent issue, Drove him crazy. We never could figure out the issue till one day he called us over as the issue was happening rite then.

Found it;
Yep, it was the fly-bridge dash cover.
Relief to us, Green egg on him for a while.
 
Had a similar issue but only occasionally. Finally figured out it was the helm cover on the fly bridge that would restrict movement of throttles or shifters in a particular combination. While docking of course.
 
It’s the flybridge throttles that move easily and they move the Saloon throttles easily
Go to the saloon and the port throttle won’t move Very strange!

Now that you have checked your fly-bridge cover, a couple of questions;
Did they ever work?
When did they stop working.
Any boat work or mods, rite before they stopped working.

Are your controls Hynautic or push/pull cables?
